workstation Nic card errors

I don't think you can change the IRQ settings within the registry. If you can I don't think you would want to. It can cause a BSOD or the NTDETECT will reset it to the correct values. There are utilities I believe you can download from 3com or Intelto change the IRQ that your card is using.To remove the card you should do it the normal way: remove the adapter from Control Panel:Network:adapters and if that doesn't work then open Regedit and do a search using the NIC. BUT BE CAREFUL b/c any wrong move here can lead to a BSOD

Go into your BIOS and find the PnP settings. Most newer systems will allow you to configure each PCI slot to use a dedicated IRQ. Which IRQ are you using? What system are you on? And why do you need to change it?
